    Jeep Question

    i think i may have decided to go with a wagoneer dana 44 front, (sorry james, but seth wants it anyway) and need to know the width of the SPRING PERCHES vs the width on a YJ....
    also, is a waggy 44 high pinion?
    does it have the 297x joints?

    not high pinion, spring perch is withing .5" so you just fill the old hole and drill a new one .25" inboard, or let the bushing do the work

    but, the wagoneer 44 is the same width as the YJ 30 you got right now, James 44 is full size, so thats around 65-67" wide vs the 60" you have now

    i know about the width of james's vs the waggy 44... and i do want james's 44...
    but assuming this weekend's cab swap goes according to plan, and i can get my insurance money before the end of the week, i want to be fully functional and trail ready before june...
    this means i need to compromise some things. the waggy 44 will swap in easier than james coil sprung 44.
    i am a bit disappointed in the low pinion deal though... damnit. i got about one week to decide what to do....
